Not sure if this is the right place but here i go anyway.
I have really no idea what so ever about scripts other than they can do stuff :P
But I am wanting some help in making on for my boss.

I want to open a Excell template but have it save when i click save into a specifc
directory everytime.
So say i click on this template i want it to prompt me to give it a client name then
save it in a specific drive and under a folder of the client name.
It will always be the same drive though just folders created from what ever client
name it prompts me to give it
Have a guy here that cant really work pcs but the only guy that can price a house
lol and is always loosing files.

Just need a script to prompt me for a Name, create a folder in say H: under that
name then open a template then save that under that folder and with the same name lol

If anyone can help me with this that would be HUGELY!!!! appreciated

You will need to look at VBA

This should get you started

I was playing around yesterday and came up with this. This may help.
Maybe someone else could make it better.

I am looking for a vb script which i can use in the windows 2003 active directory group policy for the users so that the first time they login they must change their password, no need for strong password or max length.

Sorry to sound dumb, with what i do you should think i would get this but.
Do i just save that as a .scpt file or something and then full in the blanks of drive paths?

If you go through this http://www.fontstuff.com/vba/vbatut07.htm it explains how to add your code either in personal.xls or an Add-On, it even shows you how to create your buttons and add them to menus.

Isn't this functionality included in windows 2003 server anyway??
In Active Directory... look at the "accounts" tab of a users properties for "change password at next logon"

Not only that, but what the hell does this have to do with the original post?

When an account is created it should be set automatically to prompt for a new password, it's part of the account settings.

If you don't want complex passwords then get ready for complex root kits causing all sorts of problems.
